    Vote on the Knoppix DVD project...

    --After the results of this poll are in (2 week limit on votes) I'll email Klaus with the results. I think this DVD project should be made available to *us*, the regular Knoppix users.

    --Actually, BitTorrent should be ideal for this; just thought of that.

    But, can't you just burn the regular ISO on a DVD ?

    Yes, I think so. Maybe it's even a little faster than booting from CD.

    But well, the whole thing about the upcomming DVD release is that they can finaly put about all requested software on the CD^W^WDVD. It's just that Klaus Knopper doesn't feel like maintaining it, just a stunt so to say.

    I am all for the DVD being made available to everyone who wants its, be it via DL of ISO on ftp, bittorrent or what have you.

    I am ALSO for the DVD being made available via a Linux CD distributor(s) for those, like me, with out DVD burners, or a desire to DL ISO's, also me.

    Also you should elaborate in the poll question as to what the "free" in the free software means. I doubt it matches MY definition of the term versus Mr. Knoppers and the intended definition here.

    See http://www.knoppix.net/forum/viewtop...393&highlight= for free v free.

    --It's on there. Check the package list at my Yahoo briefcase:

    --If you can't get to it, email me and I'll mail you the file as an attachment. In addition, if anyone can recommend a good free file-sharing service (yahoo seems to have clamped down on file sharing unless you pay them) let me know.

    I'll pony up the bux for a DVD as I don't believe in a free lunch at someone else's expense and I don't have a DVD burner but I do have a DVD drive.
